Course overview
This course is designed to provide an overview of medical devices in relation to considerations when using innovative manufacturing techniques, for example 3-D printing, and other areas of special interest, such as drug-device combinations, borderline products, ATMPs-devices and software. Delegates will explore and critically debate the regulatory issues likely to arise from the development and manufacture of such medical devices, in order to be able to provide effective strategic and regulatory advice to achieve successful placement of such products on the market. The module will also cover the application of legislation, directives, guidelines, interpretation and classification documents and regulatory requirements revolving around medical devices manufactured with innovative/non-traditional processes including drug-device, combination and borderline products. It will also include commentary from Notified Body and Competent Authority perspectives, special requirements such as human factor testing and risk analysis and management of such devices. Where possible, case studies will be used to achieve those learning goals and put into practice the theory behind the relative legislation.
Very detailed overview with beneficial case studies and knowledgeable speakers.” – 2018 delegate
